Friday assorted links
1.The world of “shadow foster care.” (NYT)
3. Why movie dialogue has become more difficult to understand.
4. And how the Beatles used Indian music theory (video).
5. “A soft-spoken, self-effacing young man from Seoul may be the most listened-to living composer on the planet right now…” A good piece. And Korea seems to account for 20% of the world’s classical music sales. Reason to be bullish on the country.
7. “I had to wrap my head around the fact that close to nothing of what makes science actually work is published as text on the web.” Excellent essay by Markus Strasser.
